In today’s infographic we look at attitudes and characteristics of people who use smartphones. To no one’s surprised, Apple’s handset remains the single most loved device with 65% of iPhone owners surveyed saying they can’t live without their shiny gadget. Moreover, 15% would rather give up sex than go a weekend without their the iPhone. Weird or what?
The infographic also goes through app usage, suggesting that the following categories were most used by people who had downloaded an app: games (64%), weather (60%), social networking (56%), maps/search (51%), music (44%), news (39%), entertainment (34%), finance (32%), movies/video (26%) and shopping (26%).
It’s also worth noting that many smartphone owners use their devices at social setting, and some even during sport matches… Here’s all that and much more, neatly presented in an infographic prepared by OnlineColleges.

The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
